Expect all their greatest Christmas ska hits such"Ska of Wonder", "When I Wish Upon A Ska" and many more! Followed by Martin The Mod and DJ Coops taking the two tone, soul and funky grooves into the early hours.

A special Christmas party night that's one step beyond...

Baked A La Ska

“Utterly bonkers but irresistible”Manchester Evening News

“Absolutely brilliant” Musicians Magazine

"Upbeat anthems and dancehall skanking...wouldn't you love to see this lot live?" Sunday Times

The regular house band for monthly club night Shake 'n Bake, Baked A La Ska are the heavy heavy sound of Manchester ska: an 11-piece band of assembled oddballs and pranksters brought together by keyboardist and wizard, Mr John Ellis.

Baked A La Ska are fronted by an unholy trio of singers: Mr Frank "the Skank" (smooth Sinatra/punk vocals), Tommy Robot (cyborg sounds) and the deep tones of Country Ranks (MC). Their madness is combined with the soft lilt and harmonica magic of Robin Sunflower (vegan). Baked A La Ska also feature one of the tightest rhythm sections in Manchester with the "chops to make you drop".
